Just a reminder that Tank Expo 2009 is this Saturday and will be open to whole world via the Internet. If everything goes well, online participants will be able to view video via a standard browser, participate in a VOIP conference call via Skype and/or participate in a group chat via Skype. If you want to participate online, you'll need to install the free Skype client prior to the expo, add "Tank Expo 2009" to your Contacts list and request to be added to the Tank Expo 2009 Contacts list. Then, when you want to join either the conference call or chat session (or both) on Saturday, simply send a chat message to "Tank Expo 2009" and I'll add you to whichever one you request. I'll also send you the video URL at that time. I'm not sure what the participant limits are for the conference call or group chat, so the early bird gets the worm. The Expo will officially begin at 10am EST with the Donut Box Opening Ceremony (a spectacular event that you simply don't want to miss). Online coverage will probably start at 9:30am EST with pre-event comments and predictions by our round-table of experts. See you at the Expo.
